Bug#453003: gnome-bin: Evolution doesn't present "open document" option when showing doc message attachment
Package: gnome-bin
Version: 1.4.2-37
Severity: normal
transferring here bug http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=499152 , which supposedly is a gnome issue:
I'm using evolution, and I received a mail message that has a .doc attacchment.
In the bottom part of the message I see the icon of the attacched document, and
it says that it's a "Word document attachment", apparently recognizing it.
However, the only action it permits it's saving the attacchment, while it
should present the option to open it, as nautilus actually does in my system.
I checked that after saving that document, its properties as I can see them from
nautilus correctly show the "open document with openoffice.org" action.
